Aquarium Stand - all sides access

I'm putting together my next build.

Going to do a 75 or 90g SPS tank.

I need a stand for 48"w x 24"L

Going to run a titan method, so want a stand that I can put in as large of a sump as possible. The trouble I'm running into is that all the stands I can find are just crap. Small doors, etc. It would be great if I could get something that has side access, not just front doors.

Have any suggestions?

All I am finding is crap out there.

You may want to go custom like I did. I have access on all 4 sides with my aluminum stand.

You can always have a steel frame made and add panels that attach magnetically to it. That is how I plan on doing any large builds in the future

I'm open to custom stand.

How to make or buy?

I’m a welder and I’m going to be doing the same thing. But I won’t be using steel. I’ll be using structural grade aluminum (3/16 thick)
